Mass and energy balances of sewage sludge pyrolysis in a lab rotary kiln

(Corresponding) Mendoza L., Gómez A., Rincón S.

Topic:

Energy technologies and sustainability

The aim of this work is to study the influence of the main parameters of sewage pyrolysis in a rotary kiln on the product distriburion and energy balances. An indirectly heated rotary kiln at a laboratory scale was used (4 kg/h). An increase in the final temperature causes the reduction of the...Read more

Support Structure Suitability for Offshore Wind Farms Development in Greece based on a Sustainable Site-Selection Framework

(Corresponding) Spyridonidou S., Vagiona D.

Topic:

Energy technologies and sustainability

Site-selection and spatial planning form a crucial step toward the successful development of Offshore Wind Farms (OWFs). Deployment of wind turbines in different water depths has raised the issue of selection of the most suitable support structures. In this work, a well-structured site-selection...Read more

Evidence of Cyprus Energy Strategy, Realities and Options

(Corresponding) TSANGAS M., ZORPAS A.

Topic:

Energy technologies and sustainability

Cyprus is an insular European Union member state. It is energy isolated and mostly depended on imported fossil fuel. Moreover, its energy planning is affected and guided by relevant European strategies as well as sustainability targets of the United Nations. Although a significant renewables...Read more

Technological solutions for giving a new life to power plants of alternative energy: social, economic, and environmental assessment of end of life scenarios

(Corresponding) Ambrosino C., Giaquinto D., Maselli G., Nesticò A., Zarra T., Belgiorno V., Naddeo V.

Topic:

Energy technologies and sustainability

The resources on the planet are not unlimited and special attention has been paid to alternative energies in recent years. Alternative (or renewable) energy are all those energy sources that do not come from fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). To date, wind and solar energy are the main...Read more

Energy Communities: A Significant Factor to alleviate Energy Poverty

(Corresponding) Lamprousis G., Golfinopoulos S.

Topic:

Energy technologies and sustainability

At the end of the 20th century, one of the phenomena that affect humanity on a social, economic, political, and environmental level is the energy poverty, a concept that is still misunderstood. It is a distinct form of poverty associated with a range of adverse effects for people’s health and...Read more

The role of biomass and biowaste in the green energy transition of islands and an introduction to the μgas-to-grid concept

(Corresponding) Vakalis S., Fountoulakis M.

Topic:

Energy technologies and sustainability

The green transition of the energy sector in islands has always been a challenging task. The connectivity of islands with the (mainland) central grid can be problematic, especially when the distance is significant. In such cases, isolated electrical grids need to be developed on the islands, and...Read more
